Mr. Ed Mulhall:

No; I am saying it was taken at a different tier. The decision on commissioning the documentary and broadcasting it would be taken at the TV programmes level. It would have been done in discussions with news and current affairs at the time, because those programmes - the special Monday night documentaries, as they were - ran in parallel with "Prime Time Investigates". Therefore, there was co-ordination between the current affairs section and the television programmes section about the subject matter for those documentaries.

It is obvious in terms of the coverage as well, because "Future Shock: Property Crash" ran on a Monday night, and the following night's programme on Prime Timehad a discussion involving Morgan Kelly, as it turns out, about the content of that programme. That is one of the most highlighted examples on YouTube of the early discussions of the crash.
